Ingredients
- 3 pound beef roast bottom round or rump roast
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Out Grilling SPG Seasoning or favorite beef seasoning blend
Instructions
- Prepare the Big Green Egg or charcoal grill for indirect cooking at 275°F using hickory or oak wood chunks for a mild smoke flavor.
- Coat the beef roast with olive oil, then season generously with Out Grilling SPG Seasoning or favorite beef seasoning.
- Place the roast directly on the grill grates. Cook until internal temperature reaches 135°F for medium rare – about 15 minutes per pound.
- Let the roast rest for 20 minutes or up to 1 hour. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and chill for at least 4 hours or overnight. This helps you slice it ultra-thin for sandwiches.
- Once chilled, slice thinly with a sharp knife or meat slicer.
